The beater is an essential classic that has been part of American culture for about a century. Traditional competitors have lost their way in terms of how they manufacture this American hero product, so we felt we needed to rescue the situation. We spent over a year making sure this one fit just right. Each size is knitted on a special machine for a tubular garment without side seams. Made of airy, breathable combed cotton and garment dyed so they feel good the first time you wear them. Runs true to size. Made in Los Angeles, Calif. Our experienced sewers earn up to $25 an hour and no less than $17.25; additionally workers have healthcare benefits for less than $15 per week, a 401k plan, paid sick days, subsidized bus passes and favorable overtime benefits.
